Next chemo this Friday...

Went into Haemotology this morning. They are happy with everything so far. White blood cell count was .9 on Monday morning. It was 1.3 this morning, but still not a 2.0 or better as required. Again, not a problem - at least the old 'bod' is responding to the chemo!

They have sent me home with a couple of syringe-fulls of GCSF which stimulates the production of the white cells. They are confident I'll be fine for Friday morning at 9:00.

One patient today was heard to say to the Dr "Doc, I can't help singing 'The Green Green Grass of Home'. "Sounds like Tom Jones Syndrome" said the Dr.
"Is that common" asked the patient. "Its not unusual".
